Live architecture

Human as an inseparable part of nature is still confronted with inorganic world, which its creates by himself. Inability reflection of that inorganic world it alone determines to seek new forms and reuse return to nature. Biomorfismus as the direction was defined at the beginning of the 20th century and since then, is connected with art and design. His reflection in architecture was not so strange, thanks to rigid understanding of possible forms and imperfect technology. Concept of biomorphing can interpret the following compounds: bio-related life and organic forms, amorphous-transformation, or possible changes. The overall meaning can interpret as converted on the basis of life. At the present level of understanding and finding parallels between architecture and structures. Concept of shape is based on natural mathematical logic and its subsequent application to the genesis of new forms or verified by nature static diagrams. Digitization associated with direct testing of organic agents has the effect that may occur synthesis, which connects to multiple sectors (biology, bioengineering, materials engineering, architecture or art), looking for parallels between them. This research study will examine new ways of designing and manufacturing. With the combination of digital tools and technologies can influence the isolated environment in which they are grown organic forms. Thanks controlled changes in this environment it is possible to modify the conditions for life and thus. Actually drive the growth itself. The goal is to design and manufacture organic based materials using bacteria eliminating cellulose and its application in the production of components with potential application in architecture or design. The research will involve collaboration with experts in the field, the organization of the workshop and publish the results on interdisciplinary conferences.
